About Pikachu

Pikachu is on the lookout for a foster or foster-to-adopt home in the South Bay or Peninsula area of the SF Bay Area for easy access to training. At about 3 years old and 12 pounds, she’s an adorable little girl with a big heart, especially after being returned by her previous adopters due to their inability to follow through on her training. This sweet, silly muppet loves to cuddle and has a playful spirit. In her previous foster home, she thrived, playing with another dog and bringing joy to her foster mom. Currently, Pikachu is learning leash manners and has made great strides with the guidance of the @rfrdacademy team, becoming much more confident around other dogs. Pikachu needs a dedicated owner who is committed to her continued training and success. The training sessions will be provided locally in San Jose, ensuring she has the support she requires. You’ll surely fall for her charm, and she’s ready to bring happiness to her next home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
